To take pictures of your teeth and jaw, dentists use a special machine called a Cone Beam Computed Tomography(CBCT) machine. This machine allows dentists to get a better look at your teeth by creating a 3D image, just like how your teeth look in real life. 3D dental imaging makes it easier for dentists to effectively plan treatment or accurately diagnose oral health concerns. This is because 3D imaging allows your dentist to see the height, width, and depth of each individual tooth in your smile.

Traditional x-rays that only show dentists a limited picture are quickly becoming outdated as more and more dentists turn to CBCT technology. From one 3D scan, your dentist will be able to see your teeth, muscles, nerves, disease, infection, and more. Their technological marvel has created a new and advanced way for meticulously identifying and treating diseases while also ensuring that patients feel properly treated and diagnosed.
